Frequently Asked Questions
Which Postmark 1170 model fits my application?
The Standard Pro is the everyday production model for envelopes and mailers, fed by a 12" standard feeder with shingling delivery conveyor for high-volume direct mail. The Napkin Pro is purpose-built for custom-printed napkins, with a specialized napkin feeder and catch delivery tray. The Package Pro handles cardboard boxes and corrugated packaging via a heavy-duty feeder table. All three share the same HP PageWide printheads and 1200 x 1200 DPI resolution.
What ink does the Postmark 1170 use, and is it durable?
The 1170 series uses HP pigmented aqueous inks, which are fade, scratch, and water-resistant. That makes the prints suitable for outdoor mail, packaging that may be handled or shipped, and any application where the print needs to survive friction and moisture exposure.
Does the Postmark 1170 include software for variable data jobs?
Yes. Every system ships with Xitron Navigator RIP pre-installed. Navigator handles variable data printing, multi-page PDF imposition, and job queuing directly from the bundled workstation, so there's no separate software purchase or integration needed for typical VDP workflows.
